with Therapist and Inherence Founder, Kasia Dodd
In midlife, many of us begin to hear a quiet but persistent call—an invitation to reconnect with the parts of ourselves we’ve buried beneath busy schedules, perfectionism, and years of being everything to everyone. In this soulful conversation, therapist and founder of Inherence, Kasia Dodd, joins me once again to explore the transformational journey of coming home to the true self.
Kasia's own path, shaped by her clinical background and deep spiritual practice, speaks to the kind of awakening many midlife women experience—a gradual unravelling of old patterns, beliefs, and identities that no longer fit. At the heart of her Inherence process lies a powerful truth: we already hold the keys to our wholeness. The healing begins not by adding more to our lives, but by remembering who we are beneath the conditioning.
The Inner Child and Inner Parent Dynamic
One of the most resonant aspects of our conversation is Kasia’s insight into the relationship between our inner child and inner parent. The inner child is playful, intuitive, and wildly connected to the present moment—but she is often silenced by an inner parent who carries the weight of outdated beliefs and protective programming.
For many women, this inner dynamic becomes especially loud during midlife. We may feel disconnected from joy or experience a persistent sense of loneliness, even when surrounded by others. Kasia reminds us that these feelings are not flaws—they are sacred invitations to reconnect with our essence.
The Power of Intuition and Inner Trust
In a world that prioritises logic and planning, we’re often taught to dismiss our intuition. But as Kasia shares, our gut feelings are deeply connected to the wisdom of our inner child. That intuitive knowing—subtle yet powerful—is what helps us align with our truth, especially during times of change.
Practices like meditation, breathwork, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) can help quiet the noise of the inner critic and bring us back into alignment with our instincts. As midlife calls us to slow down, these tools offer a bridge between our inner world and the clarity we seek.
Awakening in a Changing World
Kasia also speaks to the larger collective shift happening around us. The deconstruction many of us are witnessing—whether in systems, relationships, or belief structures—is mirroring the deep internal awakening so many are undergoing. We are not alone. There is wisdom in the unravelling.
Awakening, she says, isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about softening into who we’ve always been. It’s remembering the quiet voice inside that has always known the way, even if we’ve been too distracted—or too afraid—to listen.
An Invitation to Return to Self
Whether you’re in a moment of transition, seeking deeper connection, or feeling the stirrings of your own spiritual awakening, this episode is a balm. Kasia’s message is clear: the journey back to yourself is the most important one you’ll ever take. And it’s never too late to begin.
Tune in to this heart-opening conversation on Life, Health & The Universe and allow it to be a gentle nudge inward—to reconnect with your intuitive wisdom, embrace the tenderness of your inner child, and trust that everything you need is already within you.
